Dragging multiple civil cogo points at the same time.

Anonymous

I know a while back someone posted a lisp program to window a bunch of cogo points to drag them out.

https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/civil-3d-forum/dragging-multiple-labels-at-once/m-p/5745926#M279801

 

I'd like to window a bunch of points then drag them uniformly either by picking or by typing in an x or y distance.

Any help on this would be appreciated. Dragging the label of hundreds of cogo points is not fun.

Thanks

Dragging Point Labels via lisp is not directly possible. It would require a helper tool programmed in .NET. The link you posted had a .net solution but all the links are broken. It looks like Terry Dotson added a tool for this to his toolkit and I will be adding one to the Sincpac for the next release.

That's too bad I also noticed all the links were broken. Let me know when you have that toolkit done I would love something to do this. Thanks

The next release of the Sincpac will have the SPDRAGPOINTLABELS tool. You can either key in the X-Y offsets or select a cogopoint that has already been dragged to the desired offset.
